I am upgrading from 9.0 to 9.1 and I completed upgrading the first host out of my 3-node cluster.
When I gave the host a reboot command, it started attempting to migrate the VMs, but it ran into this issue with every VM on that host:
The loop appears to be going continuously, cycling through all of the existing VMs. I cannot log into the host anymore via ssh since it's being rebooted, nor is a console visible anymore.
How can I stop this endless loop and allow the host to reboot?
I tried disabling all of the HA Node Affinity Rules, but that didn't stop it. I don't know how to stop this process on a node I can no longer access.
